A Stripper Thanksgiving Story

Detroit strip clubs
A dancer, whom I know slightly but have never had dances with, sat down at my table. Then she began to cry.
Me: "What's the matter?"
Dancer: "I haven't been making any money, and I won't be able to give my kids a Thanksgiving."
Me: "You and your kids can come to my house for Thanksgiving. I make a great turkey and all the fixings. I don't have any people coming over this year, so you and your kids would be welcome guests."
Dancer: "Can't you give me $100 instead?"
Me: "What's the matter?"
Dancer: "I haven't been making any money, and I won't be able to give my kids a Thanksgiving."

I've had a similar experience with bums. They have signs indicating that they're hungry and I offer them up food. They decline my offer of food and ask for money. Assholes.
That would have done the trick.
Jack – can I come over instead – I don’t do extras though.
Earlier this evening I was at a Starbucks and some young dude in his 20s walks into the place w/ a sob story about needing help w/ some gas money and that his wife was in the car bla bla bla.
I’m one to feel sorry for people and willing to help out – but this young, healthy, able-bodied, 20-something should be able to buy his own gas – at least b/w him and his “wife†they should at least have one credit card they can use to get the so called “gas†they needed (probably wanted to buy some drugs or something).
I gave them $10 which 20 years ago could get them a descent amount of gas. As soon as I gave them the $$$; they just drove off w/o pumping any gas.
A city near me I was on my way shopping and got off the freeway and at this intersection was a panhandler. The light was red so I sat and waited. A 2012 Lexus SUV pulled up next to the panhandler a guy got out of the drivers seat in beat up clothes, opened the back seat door and grabbed a card board sign and switched spots with the panhandler who was at the intersection. Then original drove away in the Lexus. Wish I was jonny on the spot with my camera so I could have videoed it and sent it to the news.
